One of the many benefits of cloud computing platforms is the ability to take advantage of professional data security from the experts.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">However, <strong>your approach to cloud security can\u2019t be a passive one. It\u2019s important to learn about the online threats to the cloud today<\/strong>, and how we\u2019re countered them with layered security measures.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Challenges_Associated_with_Cloud_Services\"><\/span>Challenges Associated with Cloud Services<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The first issue that businesses hope to resolve with cloud services is the possibility of security breaches.<\/p>\n<p><strong>When you store your data up in the cloud, we can keep it secure from hackers.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">There are some incompetent cloud services &#8211; usually ones started by amateurs and without much experience in the field &#8211; that won\u2019t be able to maintain data security and end up hacked and bankrupt. Even if you\u2019re encrypting your data, a hacker could use side-channel timing information to obtain your keys, if a provider hasn\u2019t done their research.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The second major concern for businesses is the ever-present threat of data loss. It\u2019s not worth it to invest in a cloud service that can\u2019t give you a 100% guarantee of data protection from leakage as well as loss<strong>. Fortunately for you, at <a href=\"https:\/\/www.esds.co.in\/\">ESDS<\/a> we make it our <em>priority <\/em>to protect your data from any threats.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong>Other challenges we prevent include service-traffic hijacking, which is when a hacker takes your information and then injects false data into your system. <\/strong>This data is, then directed towards your customers, causing severe financial losses.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong>Using third-party API\u2019s and interfaces may also lead to problems as these services may come with lower security<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Along with these challenges, technological vulnerabilities and lack of diligence may also hinder a safe cloud experience for you.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Concept_of_Multiple_Security_Layers_in_Cloud_Service\"><\/span>Concept of Multiple Security Layers in Cloud Service<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">A conventional cloud service will have a virtual layer at the bottom and a security layer on top of it. This approach, however, doesn\u2019t always provide the optimum security, which we value at ESDS. Considering the level of <span id=\"462c8ccd-d5ce-49bf-82bf-c5ee2a12b47f\" class=\"GINGER_SOFTWARE_mark\">cyber-crimes<\/span> and the types of possible security breaches, a better approach will be to have <span id=\"b185bdd2-bdef-49da-a8e2-1d99c4f810f5\" class=\"GINGER_SOFTWARE_mark\">multi<\/span>-layered security.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">A multi-layer security structure has every layer of cloud computing protected. The <a href=\"https:\/\/www.esds.co.in\/mtvscan\/mtvscan-security\"><strong>Security<\/strong> <\/a>layers start from the very beginning of the software right up to the service layer.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">You see, it\u2019s not just about putting up a firewall around your network and system anymore. It\u2019s about protecting your data from highly skilled <span id=\"b4ad11ff-f78c-4005-8ede-ae461b67e250\" class=\"GINGER_SOFTWARE_mark\">cybercriminals<\/span>.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">To build a secure cloud, you need to have services like Virtual Private Network (VPN) and Intrusion Detection Systems (IDS) embedded in your cloud, both services which we provide.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong><span id=\"8f137a1b-c5eb-47a9-a11e-72ced9de2bd9\" class=\"GINGER_SOFTWARE_mark\">Multi-layer<\/span> security actually means that your data needs to be protected in more than one way. Our security measures start from data encryption &#8211; <\/strong>or a method that uses a key to encrypt and decrypt your data. That way, your data\u2019s meaningless if stolen.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong>Next comes contextual access control:<\/strong> This basically means that we make sure that you control who can access what part of your data, from where, and through what device. This can be coupled with the ability to track user activities to detect unusual behavior.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong>Another must-have security measure is Data Loss Prevention (DLP) technology. <\/strong>We can prevent sensitive, private information like passwords from going into the cloud without encryption.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Why_eNlight\"><\/span>Why <span id=\"609dfa72-bb0d-4219-8bd6-30fbde6bed7c\" class=\"GINGER_SOFTWARE_mark\">eNlight<\/span>?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span id=\"37d773df-7a26-4235-8b2f-de11263b0339\" class=\"GINGER_SOFTWARE_mark\">eNlight<\/span> is one of the best cloud services you can ask for.
